6 Weird Things About Me Meme
January 20th, 2007
I got tagged by Raesha with the 6 Weird Things About Me meme. I’m supposed to write six weird things about me. The problem is narrowing it down to six, so here goes!
1) I eat my fries with mayo. If you’re German and reading this… it’s not so weird.
2) When I buy fabric yardage, especially fat quarters… I refold them so you can’t see the raw edges. I also like all my FQ’s to be folded the same way, into a neat little chubby folded pillow of cotton delight. Is this weird or anal? Don’t answer.
3) I like to pull the little “pills” off fabric and roll em around my fingers. I’m sure it’s some weird Freudian thing that dates back to babyhood. Ok…. That’s REALLY weird. It’s how I live.
4) I can’t just sit. Sitting and doing nothing, for example watching TV. I have to be doing something with my hands at all times (I’m guessing this is how #3 fits into my life). Quilting, embroidering, appliquéing, etc. It’s why I don’t like going to the movies. And to my English teacher Mrs. Nuccio at Foothill Intermediate in Walnut Creek… way back in the stoneage of 1975ish… you sent me to the office for not sitting still and playing with some elastic band I had from sewing (home ec). You said one day I’d grow up and be a well behaved young lady and sit still. I’m still waiting. Oh, and Mrs. N… I had a cigarette on the way to the office.
5) I can’t sleep on an airplane. Too many conversations to eavesdrop on! And what if I miss the food service while sleeping?!
6) I can’t drive my car without toting along a cup of coffee. I also never get lost while driving. I have this internal TomTom I’m equipped with. I may forget why I’m going there… but I know how to get there.

Farting around with needle & thread and then blogging about it.
I love these lists! I totally get the fabric “pill” rolling thing. I don’t do it myself, but I do something similar with sheet and shirt hems.
What you need to do is come to my store, I will ply you with plenty of coffee, and you can refold all of my fabric which has become completely messed up. You can show me your method. Especially if you have one for weirdly shaped scraps which really annoy me with their unfoldability.
Is that a plan?
January 20th, 2007You are weird, but that’s why I love ya! And, I love mayo mixed with ketchup with my fries, especially Wendy’s fries…yummy!
January 20th, 2007Cindy, you deleted a comment! Now it looks like we had a fight, and then you posted a make-up comment.
I guess we should put our heads together and think of something scandalous we should be fighting about. And then everyone can talk about us on The View and Jimmy Kimmel.
Oh Angelina… I’m so there! Serious… I’m there!!!
January 20th, 2007Oooo, the juicy gossip we could start…like maybe we’d be fighting because I’m a “PREWASHER!” Oh My!
My make-up post would probably be about mascara, since it’s probably the most important to me…or maybe lipstick but I don’t use any of it. :)
I didn’t realize that dumb thing would say “comment removed by author”, I just wanted it GONE! I wanted to add stuff to it, but there’s not an edit place…or is there??
January 20th, 2007I am now inspired to write a letter to all my teachers who did and said really idiotic things to me and post it…I’m going to think about it. I love your list. : )
January 21st, 2007I am soooooo with you on #4. I can’t just watch TV. I have to be ironing interfacing on fabric, or cutting something out on the coffee table. There is just too much sewing I want to get done to waste my time just sitting on the sofa!
January 22nd, 2007OOHH I eat green beans with mayo:):) For french fries the best is equal parts mayo and ketchup - hubby calls it fry sauce:):)
January 22nd, 2007I am SO in on the pothodler swap - I’m off to email you now:)
